Sample Answer (Sample Answer)

1. Are you satisfied with your current age?

I wouldn't say I am completely content with who I am at my current age. In fact, I have recently embarked on a journey where I am rediscovering everything about myself – my career, my family, and even my own identity. I don't think that's necessarily a negative thing! It has provided me with new perspectives on my personal identity. So even though I'm not entirely satisfied with who I am and my age right now, I think it's acceptable.

• be content with = to be pleased/satisfied with sth: hài lòng với điều gì
• embark on a journey: bắt đầu một hành trình

2. When you were young, did you think a lot about your future?

Absolutely! Since I was a young child, thoughts about the future have always been at the forefront of my mind. As a child, I always wondered who I would become, what career path I would choose, what car I would drive. I think it was a wonderful thing! Curiosity has always driven me forward, giving me the impetus to be proactive and move forward in life.

• toddler: đứa trẻ
• on top of my mind: thường trực trong đầu
• driving me forward: đưa tôi về phía trước
• momentum: đà (tăng tốc)

3. Have you noticed any changes in yourself as you've grown older?

Yes. I have to say the change I've witnessed within myself over the past few years has been truly remarkable! For the longest time, I always considered myself an extrovert. You know, I always projected this mask, this image where I portrayed myself as a very outgoing and social person. But now, I've actually come to realize and accept that I'm an introvert. And I think that's a beautiful thing! I believe this experience has been incredibly enlightening and revealing. I'm learning to embrace myself as a quieter, more composed individual.

• facade: bề ngoài 
• persona: hình ảnh tính cách
• come to terms with: học cách chấp nhận rằng
• eye-opening: mở mang tầm mắt

4. What will change in your life in the future?

That's a difficult question to answer because life itself is so unpredictable. However, I believe I've become a more reflective and considerate person, which means I'll carefully weigh my options before deciding which path to take. I think this will have a significant impact on my life and will help me avoid risks – that's my take.

• thoughtful: biết suy nghĩ
• considerate: thận trọng
• courses of action: phương hướng hành động
